Dear folks,

I wouldn´t hesitate to donate if someone was able to help me with this...
I´ve never really missed anything on my N9, a WiFi remote for Home Theater (TVs, AVRs, Bluray players connected to home network), however, is something I´d be really amazed to have...
There is a lot of similar apps for both iOS and Droid, mainly coming from AV brands themselves (Pioneer, LG, Samsung, Panasonic, Onkyo, Denon, NAD, Marantz and counting) but I´ve recently seen one guy who made it on his own for Droid...
as I´m using Pioneer AVR + Bluray player, similar app for N9 would totally make my dreams come true...
I tried to contact the guy, unfortunately I was unable to get to his email or anything..

Any help is much appreciated

I guess this will be a tricky one...

I'm also looking for wifi remoter for my LG smart Tv, there is one called Gemote for maemo5/6 but it's used for controling Samsung smart tvs only. I have asked for LG TVs support but got no response, maybe you could try asking them ?

Well, I don´t think you can ever get a response from such manufacturer...I did contact Pioneer right after I decided to buy N9 as I knew this app and saw it in action on iPhone 4, I was unfortunately told that there are no plans to release such app for any Linux-based devices...iOS + Droid got it all lined up...sadly, no space for another platforms with such apps...
But if there´s a guy who was able to make a similar app, which actually works on Droid, on his own, I hoped there could be someone capable enough to make it work on N9, too...

If you know the protocol (how to give the tv device a command) it will be very simple.
But if you have to reverse engineer, its very time consuming and might not even be legal.

You can have a look at this: http://jointspace.sourceforge.net/
Somebody with skills can work something useful. I even started a similar thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=82236 , but nobody responded. For sure it works with Philips TVs, but may be other vendors have joined.

That would be an interesting project and might not even be too difficult.
How ever since I don't have a tv or other wifi controllable device I am not able to develop it.
(Have a NAS with uPnP, but I guess that's something else)

interesting...
I´ve asked this questíon at Nokia Developer website as well, this is the answer from a Nokia dev:
"If you get (from the manufacturer or otherwise) or manage to reverse engineer the interfaces/protocols that such equipment use, then there's no reason why you couldn't write an app that can control them from your N9.

A good way to start with such reverse-engineering is to configure a phone for which such an app exists to use only WLAN, and then to force the WLAN traffic to go through a proxy server that you control (i.e. runs on your PC). Then at the proxy you can monitor the traffic between the phone/app and whatever box is is talking to and being to figure out the protocol."

I just came across these source codes for 2011 Pioneer BD players

I´m still looking for wifi-based remote control app for my BDP-440/52FD...

I also got hold of the IP commands table for the BDP-52FD, can´t upload here due to file size...


Could this help anyhow to make this happen?
THX

Would like to know if it is possible to get a remote for apple tv?
Thought I saw one developed for Android or is aTV completely locked?

(have the xbmc remote for aTV XMBC and that one works great)
